We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Expired -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193791 Title: Default video playback settings are bad -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 193791] Re: Default video playback settings are bad
This bug report was filed against an old version of Ubuntu. Can you confirm whether this is still an issue in natty? If you don't mind, it would be very helpful if you could update the bug report in launchpad to 'Fix Released' if it is no longer an issue for you, or if it is still occurring under natty, please tag the bug 'natty' so it's easier for us to track. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = New ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193791 Title: Default video playback settings are bad -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Lol, i was just enjoying watching a movie when this email about an added tag arrived. One quickly gets used to quirks, perhaps even enjoy things more because of them. The players all work well enough to thoroughly enjoy.

Lol, i had forgotten about this and am on a machine using 8.04 - really bad movie playback but this bug reminded me so i swithed gstreamer- properties to ...(no Xv), i'm guessing playback will now improve agains, as it did before. I do have all the latest updates. Anyway, i'm glad activity here prompted me to change my settings :) Thanks, good luck and regard from Tom :) -- Default video playback settings are bad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 193791] Re: Default video playback settings are bad
Hmm, i explored some settings in the different media-players and found post-processing was disabled by default. Adjusting most of the colour variables (hue, brightness etc) with the mouse wheel was odd, rolling the mouse wheel forwards decreased the value while rolling it backwards increased the value in almost all cases. I found i was able to set all except VLC to a good volume level for me but VLC kept forgetting what i had set it to. Xine was the only media-player that allowed me to configure my mouse wheel to adjust the volume but then it wouldn't change its function while the arrow was hovering over a different control, such as the timeline. I can't imagine many people switching to and remaining with Linux for long as a desktop machine while our media- players are so far behind Windows. I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 with an ati graphics card and tried Xine GXine MPlayer VLC Player XfMedia but none of them came close to even poor Windows players in terms of user-configurablity. A shame because each of them seems like an excellent work and once tweaked seems to be more capable than many of the best of Windows. Also linux is much more pleasurable to work with, particularly because of the higher quality of packages and lack of paranoia at higher levels. Ubuntu is a good name for a linux distro but that feeling of freedom is prevalent in all the distros i have tried.

[Bug 193791] Re: Default video playback settings are bad
Hi eldmannen+launchpad, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISOs are available from cdimage.ubuntu.com) If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log? Thanks in advance. The output of lspci -vvnn would also be worth having. ** Changed in: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Default video playback settings are bad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am using the nvidia-glx-new from the repository.

The brightness xv problem might be connected to Bug 32963. Btw. post processing can have a huge impact on CPU usage so it shouldn't changed per default.

[Bug 193791] Re: Default video playback settings are bad
As Sebastien indicated, that this indicates a problem in the video driver, and you seem to be using the driver directly from nvidia, I'm marking this as invalid (we cannot fix 3rd party software). Or are you using the nvidia-glx/nvidia-glx-new packages from the repository? If so, please reopen.

boppp, in Totem if its dark, goto Edit-Preferences-Display, there you can change brightness, contrast, saturation, hue. If you have VLC, when you play the movie, select Video-Post processing-6 (highest). In MPlayer, right-click select Preferences, Video, then switch from xv to gl.
